Loved this when it first came out, watched it again in the cinema a few months ago and I think it's my favourite Nolan movie.

The rot at the heart of British culture that allows something like today’s Supreme Court ruling to be made…
Boycott Rowling. Teach your dad about pronouns. Withhold your vote from politicians who don’t vocally support trans rights. Fund trans artists and creators.
